RIGHT...now that i've dried out....that was alright wasn't it, sure we didn't win, BUT we didn't lose and the boys were using the sides as their own private sprint track...

how fast is The Flash and The Archer?...they were blurring past Nux players at will...

Speaking of Fabio, he would have to be close to the most fouled players in the league, any wonder he struggles to complete games....

maybe he should  switch with Austin now & then.... maybe the pair of them would benefit from having some time coming inside defenders & getting some shots in.


.Cac, Rose The Elder, Posco and Stormy (for the most part) done pretty good jobs...My favourite bit was the part where we didn't lose....

we created a fair bit  though a lot more genuine failed due to a poor final pass....Monty was absolutely immense, seemed to go to a another level when the rain came in.... If Austin could learn to cut inside and use his right foot he'd be a huge weapon.

Bingers dug straight in when he came on, unlike Heff, who looked a bit over awed from Bay 17...and if Roy keeps this up, his gonna get a golden boot.....the bloody referee , Beath The Pedantic, hasnt improved any ..

he was nearly as annoying as the cretin last week....

mark rudin showed what a bling stooge he is last week , claming simon was better to lead the line than "the paddy"  who has 3 goals in 5 games 

 and then there was the spinning weeMac who took it and with his first touch turned the ball inside and our defence as well and his shot was inch perfect ... The weight, direction, speed and placement of that first touch was sheer class....

beyond me how he was getting booed

Storm is a liability defensively. Maybe when Harry returns, switch posco to RB or maybe try Harry there.

Our execution is poor but we were the better side tonight.

Monty was awesome.

Austin was impressive.

McGing and Posco were excellent.

Rose has to remain starting LB.

Lovely finish by the Paddy.

I think its fair too say that the boys are gelling more and more, we should be giving the Fox Sports tipsters gut aches in a few weeks....Scummers next week...wouldnt be surprised if we roll them
